MoCo near DC

I've seen those signs and figured they were more meant to be educational than anything else. MoCo has had some BLM protests but they've been very quiet/calm. I'll confess that I'm not afraid of these protests generally, but I'm definitely not specifically worried about MoCo protests.

Well, all the posted signs are removed. I am glad my ultra progressive neighbors didn't like to be educated.

I've always supported racial equality, just like every other rational person. I also think a lot of police are undereducated, undertrained, and have psychological problems. However, over the past few months BLM has made me grow to pretty much hate the group and their cause. Now every time I think about race or racial issues I just get pissed and annoyed. I don't think that's what they were aiming for, but who knows, maybe it is.

BLM is self destructing. I love it.

BLM is desperate to be the center of attention and pretend they are in charge. BLM started something that has taken on a life of its own -- it's normal Americans who have no association with the BLM organization that matter now. Normal Americans who want to wake up in a decent country where police officers aren't murderers are the ones who matter now, not the BLM organization. So they can self destruct. That won't make this issue go away.

BLM would accuse you of being a racist just for your second-to-last sentence.

Good luck controlling the Golum you’ve created.

Golum? Is that a slur at its leadership?

I’m going to assume you’re not Jewish, and explain it to you:

In Jewish folklore, there is a tale of a man who created a human-form monster out of earth and clay, and using mysticism and rituals, animated it, so that he could use this monster to carry out revenge for him against a man who had murdered his son. This monster was called Golum. It set about it’s path of revenge, but then afterwards turned on the man who created it, killing him and his family. That is the tale of the Golum.

BLM and ANTIFA are both Golums that the democrat party has created , and both will eventually end up harming the democrats far more than they’ve ever helped them. And we’re already seeing that.




But nice try on attempting to accuse me of something. You just didn’t count on me being a Jew.

My first instinct was to call the police, but I thought better of it, since they can cause more harm than good. That is such a sad commentary on the police in our society today.

Next time you recount that event you should amend it slightly to say, “My first instinct was to help her, but I was stuck in traffic”, or something to avoid unconsciously shedding light on a much sadder commentary on society period - nobody helps one another anymore everybody just stands at a safe distance and watches people struggle.

Why would I say that when it's not what happened? I pulled over, and made multiple u-turns to figure out if she needed help. I ultimately decided calling the police would be more harm to her than walking across a busy street over and over.

How inhumane. You saw a woman struggle and neither helped her yourself nor called someone who could . Pray that you are never in need of help and find only those of your sort.

Literally, put the mental health services number in your phone NOW and call that and/or call non emergency 311 PP. To do neither (but do multiple "U Turns" ) does nothing PP.
